The author of many best-selling books, including Capitalism and Freedom, Free to Choose (with his late wife, Rose), among others. His PhD dissertation, written in 1941, was a fascinating study of five different professions, titled "Income from Independent Professional Practice." Its publication was delayed until 1945 because of the controversy it created. Friedman (and co-author Simon Kuznets) concluded that the medical profession had monopolistic powers that enabled it to raise physicians’ incomes above a competitive level. He was also partly responsible for the tax withholding act in the 1940s, and the end of the draft during the Nixon Administration.
